Message: <blockquote data-quote="RangerWickett" data-source="post: 1609940" data-attributes="member: 63">Actually, this is something I've had as a little pet peeve for a while.  I know this site is intended to be polite and decent, but if we're able to discuss mutilating bodies for the creation of undead from the BoVD, or talk about how unrealistic the orgasm rules are in the BoEF, why is it offensive when I say:?Would it be possible, somehow, to implement an option that would remove the profanity filter, if the person reading the thread wanted to?  For instance, I'm not at all offended by 'naughty words'; my ex-girlfriend regularly calls me things that are quite allowable by the filter, but which would be far more offensive.  If a storyhour writer had a vulgar character, and he put a notice in the title of his thread like "(adult language)," I would like to be able to read it as the writer intended.  For me, I'd have the "allow profanity" option enabled, and I'd be able to see the cussing.  For Grandma Noah, however, she'd just see smileys.Even if the coding to make such a thing work isn't feasible (and I'd imagine it isn't), could there at least be an option for a poster to disable the profanity filter, with the stipulation that you'd have to include a notice in the title of your thread, or else you'd be punished?  In fact, you wouldn't even have to change the board's filter.  There are several ways to work around the filter, but most people don't because we're not supposed to.  I'm just asking for a bit of leniency, for the sake of us who watch R-rated movies, and who'd like to be able to write about ornithologists.If nothing else, though, I'm now gonna go read the storyhour to see what Barsoomcore has to say about <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />.</blockquote>
